Political News and Conservative Analysis About Congress, the President, and the Federal Government
“I’m with Elon. I didn’t like that. Look, I’m not helping the legal case. You just can’t bring up that explicit level of politic,” Newsom said during an interview Thursday evening, later adding he wished “his friends” on the state commission would exercise more impartiality by “calling balls and strikes.”
The California Coastal Commission voted on Tuesday to reject the Department of Defense and Musk’s proposal to increase the number of rockets launched off California’s coastline. The Space Force, which partners with SpaceX to transport some NASA astronauts, had previously recommended that Musk’s company be given permission to launch up to 50 rockets a year from Santa Barbara County’s Vandenberg Air Force Base.
The California Coastal Commission’s 6-4 vote rejecting the proposal cited Musk’s politics as its basis to stop SpaceX from increasing rocket launches. Though the Democratic governor has publicly sparred with Musk in recent years, even prominently leading the Big Tech titan to pull his SpaceX and X headquarters out of California, Newsom expressed concerns that the California agency had displayed political bias and urged it to exercise impartiality.
